OUTYDSE TOFFIE
Het jy gesien jy kan hom minder kook vir ‘n sagter toffie.
Toe ons kinders was, het ons net suiker en water gebruik. Ouma het ons geleer.
Ek maak ‘n lekker toffie van:
1 klein blikkie Ideal melk
2 eetlepels botter
1 koppie suiker
5 ml karamel geursel
Plaas alles saam in ‘n pot op die stoof en meduim hitte.
Kook en roer aanhoudend tot die verlangde dikte.
Keer uit in ‘n voorbereide pan en sny of breek voor dit te hard is.

JACO SE SKAAPBOUD
Ek hoop dit maak julle nuuskierig Die titel verwys na die liedjie se tweede reël, naamlik “Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme” – die speserye wat ek gebruik.
Hierdie skaapboud-resep is redelik maklik, en vat nie ure om voor te berei nie. Ek begin gewoonlik 10:00 op ‘n Sondagoggend, 11:00 is dit in die oond, 15:00 eet ons en vat dan ‘n lekker middagslapie daarna.
2 kg skaapboud
3 groot aartappels
2 tamaties
1 groot ui
1 soetrissie
4 medium wortels
1 suurlemoen
sout en peper
60 ml olyfolie
Speserye:
pietersielie, salie, roosmaryn, tiemie
(Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, Thyme) vir die wat dink ek probeer slim klink
Skakel die oond aan op 200°C.
Meng al die speserye, sout en peper. As jy vars speserye gebruik, kerf dit eers baie fyn.
Sny die skaapboud in skywe (of gebruik boud-tjops), masseer die speserymengsel goed in, steek sosatiestokkie deur die tjops om die boud weer bymekaar te hou.
Skil aartappels, sny in 1.5 – 2 cm blokkies, versprei onder in die “casserole”.
Sny tamaties, wortels, ui en soetrissie in skywe of repies (hoe jy dit verkies), meng dit en sit op aartappels.
Plaas vleis bo-op, drup olyfolie oor doe vleis, maak seker dat vleis oral olie het, gebruik meer as dit nodig is.
Sny suurlemoen in skywe en plaas dit bo-op die vleis.
Plaas die deksel op die “casserole” en plaas in oond wat nou lekker warm behoort te wees, kyk gereeld (so halfuur – interval) of dit nog nie begin gaar word nie. Sodra die vleis begin ruik of dit gaar word, stel die oond af na 170°C.
Hou gereeld dop. Die resep het nie water nodig nie, die sap van die vleis en groente is genoeg vog en die eerste bietjie olyfolie keer dat alles vasbrand.
Sodra vleis gaar is, verwyder ek die suurlemoen heeltemal, dan haal ek gewoonlik die groente uit, giet die sous in ‘n pot en “braai” dan die vleis sonder die deksel vir so 10 minute om dit bietjie droër te maak. Die suurlemoensap maak die vleis heerlik sag!
Maak die sous met Bistro of Gravo aan om ‘n lekker dik bruin sous te kry.
Dien op met bruinrys, soetwortels en murgpampoentjies.
Totale tyd wat ek spandeer aan hierdie gereg is omtrent 2 ure, voorbereiding en “opcheck” ingesluit.
Res van die tyd spandeer ek aan die Sondagkoerant.

TUISGEMAAKTE KRUMMELS
Nog n Idee om lekker KRUMMELS te maak!!
Petra Mienie
Ek maak my eie krummels ook, ek gebruik toast wat ek krummels maak en meng met bruin uiesop poeier.
Baie lekker.
Vryf botter in die meel, sny die vloeistof bietjie vir bietjie in en meng tot sagte deeg. Moenie te veel hanteer nie. GEEN SOUT!
Laat rus vir 30 min. Rol uit of druk in panne.
Wanneer deeg gebêre word in die yskas verkleur dit somtyds agv die sout in die deeg.
Hierdie deeg kan vir soet of sout gebruik word.
Die eierwit kan dalk vir Pavlova gebruik word?
Nota: van dat ek hierdie reseppie gekry het by ons Fynproewers demonstrasie, het ek nog nooit weer ‘n ander resep gebruik nie. Ek het dit al vir hoenderpastei, Quich, snoektert ,souttert en ‘n peertert gebruik. Met groot sukses
Plaas jou vulsel in die voorbereide kors en bak by 180 Grade C tot gaar en mooi bruin. Die tyd sal afhang van die grote van die tert en die vulsel.

OM DEEG TE MAAK:
Sif die meel met die bakpoeier en sout.
Vryf die vet in die meel in.
Voeg geklitste eier by met genoeg melk om ‘n deeg te vorm wat maklik sal uitrol.
Rol baie dun uit en sny in sirkels.
Skep die vleisvulsel op een helfte van elke deegsirkel.
Maak die rante klam, vou oor en druk vas.
Druk ‘n riffelpatroon met ‘n vurk om die rante.
Bak in ‘n voorverhitte oond by 180º C tot goudkleurig en gaar.

GOOD HINTS AND TIPS
1. Take your bananas apart when you get home from the store. If you leave them connected at the stem, they ripen faster.
2. Store your opened chunks of cheese in aluminum foil. It will stay fresh much longer and not mold!
3. Peppers with 3 bumps on the bottom are sweeter and better for eating. Peppers with 4 bumps on the bottom are firmer and better for cooking.
4. Add a teaspoon of water when frying ground beef. It will help pull the grease away from the meat while cooking.
5. To really make scrambled eggs or omelets rich add a couple of spoonfuls of sour cream, cream cheese, or heavy cream in and then beat them up.
6. For a cool brownie treat, make brownies as directed. Melt Andes mints in double broiler and pour over warm brownies. Let set for a wonderful minty frosting.
7. Add garlic immediately to a recipe if you want a light taste of garlic and at the end of the recipe if your want a stronger taste of garlic.
8. Leftover snickers bars from Halloween make a delicious dessert. Simply chop them up with the food chopper. Peel, core and slice a few apples. Place them in a baking dish and sprinkle the chopped candy bars over the apples. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes!!! Serve alone or with vanilla ice cream. Yummm!
9. Reheat Pizza
Heat up leftover pizza in a nonstick skillet on top of the stove, set heat to med-low and heat till warm. This keeps the crust crispy. No soggy micro pizza. I saw this on the cooking channel and it really works.
10. Easy Deviled Eggs
Put cooked egg yolks in a zip lock bag. Seal, mash till they are all broken up. Add remainder of ingredients, reseal, keep mashing it up mixing thoroughly, cut the tip of the baggy, squeeze mixture into egg. Just throw bag away when done easy clean up.
11. Expanding Frosting
When you buy a container of cake frosting from the store, whip it with your mixer for a few minutes. You can double it in size. You get to frost more cake/cupcakes with the same amount. You also eat less sugar and calories per serving.
12. Reheating refrigerated bread
To warm biscuits, pancakes, or muffins that were refrigerated, place them in a microwave with a cup of water. The increased moisture will keep the food moist and help it reheat faster.
13. Newspaper weeds away
Start putting in your plants, work the nutrients in your soil. Wet newspapers, put layers around the plants overlapping as you go. Cover with mulch and forget about weeds. Weeds will get through some gardening plastic they will not get through wet newspapers.
14. Broken Glass
Use a wet cotton ball or Q-tip to pick up the small shards of glass you can’t see easily.
15. No More Mosquitoes
Place a dryer sheet in your pocket. It will keep the mosquitoes away.
16. Squirrel Away!
To keep squirrels from eating your plants, sprinkle your plants with cayenne pepper. The cayenne pepper doesn’t hurt the plant and the squirrels won’t come near it.
17. Flexible vacuum
To get something out of a heat register or under the fridge add an empty paper towel roll or empty gift wrap roll to your vacuum. It can be bent or flattened to get in narrow openings.
18. Reducing Static Cling
Pin a small safety pin to the seam of your slip and you will not have a clingy skirt or dress. Same thing works with slacks that cling when wearing panty hose. Place pin in seam of slacks and … guess what! … static is gone.
19. Measuring Cups
Before you pour sticky substances into a measuring cup, fill with hot water. Dump out the hot water, but don’t dry cup. Next, add your ingredient, such as peanut butter, and watch how easily it comes right out. (Or spray the measuring cup or spoon with Pam before using)
20. Foggy Windshield?
Hate foggy windshields? Buy a chalkboard eraser and keep it in the glove box of your car When the windows fog, rub with the eraser! Works better than a cloth!
21. Re-opening envelopes
If you seal an envelope and then realize you forgot to include something inside, just place your sealed envelope in the freezer for an hour or two. Viola! It unseals easily.
22. Conditioner
Use your hair conditioner to shave your legs. It’s cheaper than shaving cream and leaves your legs really smooth. It’s also a great way to use up the conditioner you bought but didn’t like when you tried it in your hair.
23. Goodbye Fruit Flies
To get rid of pesky fruit flies, take a small glass, fill it 1/2′ with Apple Cider Vinegar and 2 drops of dish washing liquid; mix well. You will find those flies drawn to the cup and gone forever!
24. Get Rid of Ants
Put small piles of cornmeal where you see ants. They eat it, take it ‘home,’ can’t digest it so it kills them. It may take a week or so, especially if it rains, but it works and you don’t have the worry about pets or small children being harmed!
25. Dryer Filter
Even if you are very diligent about cleaning the lint filter in your dryer it still may be causing you a problem. If you use dryer sheets a waxy build up could be accumulating on the filter causing your dryer to over heat. The solution to this is to clean your filter with with a toothbrush and hot soapy water every 6 months.
Mary Johnson Melson
Jy vat 2 eetlepels olie en 2 eetlepels matige kerriepasta en smeer dan die lamtjoppies daarmee. Dan sprinkel jy die tjoppies met ‘n teelepel Komynsaad en druk dan ‘n suurlemoen se sap daarop uit.
Dan braai jy dit.
Nota: Die tjoppies is heerlik hoor, sal dit beslis weer so maak, dit oorweldig nie die vleis nie, beslis ‘n wenner gewees!
